Special Qualities

(EA) Soul Link: The Master and any Servants that the Master controls are always under the effect of the mindlink spell and empathic link with each other with unlimited range. This effect cannot be dispelled or suppressed and is an extraordinary ability. The emphatic link partially transfers emotions, sensations and allows the master to know more or less what his servants are doing, the servants don't have this link to the master unless he allows his servants, however servants have a link between each other as long as they are under the same master

(SU) Lifelink: As long as the Master and Servant are within 60 feet of each other the servant can take damage for the master and vice versa, this is a free action when the damage occurs but can only be done once per round, with the ability refreshing at the start of the creatures turn

(SU) Soulbound: If the Master dies then all Soul Linked Creatures die unless the Servants HD is equal or more than the Master's if the Master is revived then the servants remain dead, however if the servant dies then the master can revive the servant by spending 100GP per servant HD to revive as if the Revivify spell had been cast on them (treat the dead servant as if they had just died for the purpose of this spell)
